Microsoft Exploring Possibility Of Windows 10 Streaming On Xbox One

January 22, 2015 by Ryan Parreno

Phil Spencer’s wording indicates that they are not quite fully committed to the idea yet, and for good reason.

We reported earlier that Windows 10 will be able to stream Xbox One titles, whether you use it on a PC or tablet. Microsoft is working to make it go both ways.

On the same Windows 10 unveiling event, Phil Spencer told the press that they are exploring the possibility of Windows games streaming to the Xbox One. If they are able to pull it off, it will work very similar to Steam’s In-Home Streaming capability.

While I am sure there are fans looking forward to using this feature, Spencer’s wording indicates that they are not quite fully committed to the idea yet, and for good reason. The Xbox Live Marketplace and Windows App Store remain completely separated, and with games like Threes, and even GTA San Andreas, overlapping on both platforms, there is a risk of cannibalization of one by the other.

It seems, at least momentarily, that Microsoft is emphasizing the Xbox platform for publishing games on. Whether they extend the Xbox One’s functionality with PC streaming, or explore a different route, such as perhaps unifying both platforms down the line, remains uncertain for now.

Would you like to have your Xbox One act as your PC? What functions would you like to use when Windows 10 streaming to Xbox One becomes available? Share your thoughts with us in the comments.
